The orphans of Afghanistan are a product of a war-torn nation where parents became victims and tragically children were left to fend for themselves amidst a harsh and unforgiving landscape. Most of the nation's million orphans live in sub-poverty conditions and have limited access to schooling facilities. The situation is even grimmer in small, remote habitations. The post-Taliban government has made learning a national priority and despite a marked expansion in Afghanistan's formal education system, the orphanages still remain outside the reach of the Ministry of Education. This is a serious concern. Education is a fundamental human right. It can create choices and opportunities for people and give them a stronger voice. In providing stability, protection and support to Afghanistan's orphans, we hope to witness their contribution in rebuilding their homeland one day.
